Canadian National Railway (CN) has announced a significant investment in hydrogen-powered locomotives as part of its strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and modernize its fleet. CN plans to pilot the new locomotives in select routes across Canada, aiming to reduce diesel fuel consumption and demonstrate the feasibility of hydrogen as a sustainable energy source in rail transport. This investment underscores CN’s commitment to innovation and sustainability, as the company works towards its goal of achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. The initiative is also expected to set a precedent for the wider adoption of alternative fuels in the rail industry.
